Luxury Vinyl Flooring Care and Maintenance

With the easy maintenance of a luxury vinyl floor, there is no cause for concern when it comes to spots, spills, or scuffs left by shoes. By observing a few precautions, and with proper care and maintenance, you can ensure that your luxury vinyl floor always looks its best.

For general cleaning, sweep your floor regularly (at least once a week) and be sure to wipe up spills promptly. Occasional mopping with Resista® Floor Cleaner or other manufacturer recommended cleaning solution may be needed when dirt builds up and sweeping alone is not sufficient. Please note that soap or detergent products are not recommended for luxury vinyl floors as they will leave a dulling film on the surface.

Caution: Luxury vinyl floors can be slippery when they become wet. Use extreme caution when walking on a wet floor. Use doormats outside each entrance to your home to prevent dirt, sand, grit, and other substances such as oil, asphalt, and driveway sealer from being tracked onto your floor. Use non-staining mats on your floor. Do not put rubber-backed, latex-backed, or coco fiber mats on your floor because they may stain or damage the surface.

Close your curtains or blinds where extreme sunlight hits the floor. A combination of heat and sunlight causes most home furnishings, including luxury vinyl floors, to fade or discolor.

Support furniture with wide-bearing, non-staining floor protectors. Ideally, the protectors should be at least 1" in diameter, made of non-pigmented hard plastic, and rest flat on the floor.

Non-staining felt protectors are also acceptable. Casters with a minimum 3/4" flat surface width or greater are recommended for all moveable furniture. Make sure any floor protectors made of metal are rustproof. Replace your narrow dome furniture rests with wide-bearing ones.

Cleaning Stains

The overall stain resistance of luxury vinyl flooring is excellent, and most spills will wipe off quickly and easily with a clean white cloth. Removing certain substances may take a little extra effort. Always use a clean, white cloth for wiping up stains, and turn it frequently to avoid spreading the stain. Rinse with clean water and allow area to dry. Repeat if necessary.

When moving appliances, heavy furniture, or other heavy objects, place a sheet of plywood on the floor and "walk" the appliance across it. Furniture glides are also an acceptable method of moving appliances, heavy furniture, or other heavy objects. Support furniture with wide-bearing non-staining floor protectors. Ideally, protectors should be at least one inch in diameter (the heavier the item the wider the floor protector should be), made of non-pigmented hard plastic, and should rest flat on the floor.
